This Weeks Finds
Yep here we go....2 weeks ago I reported on a Springfield NRA Sporter. I received tht on Friday...almost NEW condition...its a keeper.
Anyway this week ain't quiet over yet, but here is whats bin found so far. In the top pic is a Webley Green mdl 1896 Target in 455 Eley. 71/2 in barrel. While scanning through the auction lots this stood out..."Hey thats a Webley Green mdl 1896 TGT...WOW" I got it for a song compared to what they are worth. I figured as much, being that people just don't know that much about them..they just think its another Webley... The bottom pic is of a Springfield mdl 1873 Trapdoor...thats a decent price...for one.
